    Carb cycling is when you rotate carbs. From low to moderate to high

    Yes, in the regard that I'm on a cut cycle and keep my carbs pretty low 3 days on 1 day off. Whetever you're doing, it looks like you're doing it right!

    I'm also 500 below maintanece, but fats should probably be higher. I also want to eat my own arm!!! There is a gigantic birthday cake at work that keeps mocking me as I walk by... :p

    I have the MetRX protein pancake mix and am loving it! I can deal with the cravings, but I start feeling like crap when my carbs get too low and my training suffers. I'm still trying to find the right balance :) .
